Please help me finding the max slope and deflection im stuck on this problem for two weeks. I can't get anywhere with the boundry and continutiy conditions The problem and what I've d one:

Hi everyone! There’s a problem that I can’t find an answer to. I need to test the integrity of a skid landing gear after a fall from 500 mm height. For a better understanding I simplified forward crosstube and it looks as follows: there’s a horizontal beam of 1,5 m length supporting the mass of...

Hi, I'd like to find the easiest way to solve the following braced portal frame statically (at least for deflection and maybe stress if possible, no need to account for buckling here - reason explained below): Of course, I could utilize symmetry: But the problem is still that it's a...

I am using an exremely stong magnet to deflect a diamagnetic substance( in this case water) Is the magnet being deflected against the dianagnetic Or is the defection only present in the diamagnetic substance?

TL;DR Summary: I have a cantilever beam with fixed end, known rectangular cross section and total length h. A uniform load is applied on the beam from a distance L from the fixed end, to the free end. The E modulus and inertia I are known, and they are two different constant values for 0<x<L...

There are lots of diagrams showing bremsstralung as a deflection of an electron by a nucleus but none of inverse bremsstralung. Does the inverse process I.e. photon absorption only depend on the direction of the deflection by the nucleus? If not ,what determines wether the electron will absorb...

Hi, I'd like to calculate the maximum deflection of a simply supported beam with spring support in the middle and UDL (uniformly distributed load) acting on the whole beam: Here's my derivation, starting from the known formula for maximum deflection of a simply supported beam with UDL and no...

Hi, I am working with leaf springs and studying the derivation of the formula for the deflection of such a structure. The derivation is shown here: My only doubt is how to obtain the following formula: $$\delta=\frac{L^{2}}{8R}$$ where: ##\delta## - deflection, ##L## - length of the beam...

How can I find the maximum bending moment and maximum deflection for a spring? It would be very helpful if you could explain the specific procedure and formula in an easy-to-understand manner. that's all, thank you very much.

I am trying to figure out how to do a deflection profile for a snow ski profile at 50 mm increaments along the ski. Since the ski has different widths and heights at each crossection, the EI changes at each location making it a lot of 2nd order derivatives if I am not mistaken. I am assuming...

Summary:: Calculate the deformation on a rod/axle/pipe due to a distributed load. I’m manually trying to calculate the deformation on a rod/axle/pipe due to a distributed load. The rod has an outer diameter of 62mm and an inner diameter of 50, is 170mm long, made from a material with an...

I started by writing the equation v1i + v1f = 2v and then drawing a triangle with v1i, v1f, and 2v as the three sides. Then I used the Law of Cosines to solve for cos theta but this did not lead to a solution. Could I have a hint on how to begin? Thank you!

Hello! I have to calculate the deflection of a beam at at given point (C). The books says the should be a moment which plays a role in this deflection. How does this moment occur? I have drawn a FBD but couldn't find a moment? Should I divided the beam into separate parts or so? What am I...

Hello, I would like to discuss with my students the deflection of electrons in electric and magnetic fields. For this purpose, I would like to perform the experiments with electron beam deflection tubes and teltron tubes. How would you implement this organizationally in the classroom? There are...

Refractive index is a function of velocity in the medium. How is this related to deviation angle inside the medium? I am not asking for the known formula, but for the mechanism behind it.

Hi, I'm trying to calculate the deflection of a leaf spring. I've found several formulas but the one I'm currently using looks like this: $$f=k \frac{F L^{3}}{6EI}$$ where: ##k## - coefficient depending on the way leaves change their shape in the width direction (in my case it's ##1## because...

Um, why are we spending $330M on a mission to (re-)prove that conservation of momentum works in space? What am I missing? https://www.cnbc.com/2021/11/23/spacex-launching-nasa-dart- spacecraft -to-crash-into-an-asteroid.html SpaceX is launching a NASA spacecraft that will crash into an asteroid

At the equilibrium position all forces are equal to 0 (they balance). So, naturally we: mg - kd = 0 d = mg/k d = 0.356 m This is the correct answer, I believe. But I want to solve it using the energy equations because I am really trying to understand energy's connection to the rest of...

When a heavier mass (or nucleus say) collides with a lighter one, it deflects through a certain angle which has a theoretical maximum. There are numerous derivations for this maximum angle of deflection ##(\sin\theta_{d_{max}}=m/M)## where m is the small mass and M the larger but none seem to...

My answer is when the small coil is rotated, there will be change in magnetic flux in it. Initially (before rotated), the trace in c.r.o will be sinusoidal. After it is rotated, the trace will still be a sinusoidal (but I am not sure whether the amplitude will be the same). But the answer key...

So I am trying to understand how to estimate the amount of deflection [D] the vertical beam shown above would experience if the base it is attached to is accelerating at a constant acceleration [a] of 9.81 m/s. I assume the Force [F] would be equal to weight of the vertical beam (mass x...

In the screenshots below there are the equations (11.49) and (11.53). I don't understand how did he derive equation (11.53) from Eq.(11.49)? From (11.49) I get: ##d\phi/dy= d\phi/du du/dy = (1/b^2-u^2+2Mu^3)^{-1/2}(1+2My)##. It seems he neglected the ##2Mu^3## since ##Mu\ll 1##, so ##y\approx...

I'm given an ultra-high energy cosmic ray with energy 10^20 eV. It is coming from a source 10 Mpc away with an extragalactic magnetic field with strength B = 10^-9 G. I am to determine the maximum angular deflection of this cosmic ray, so it hits Earth. I don't have an attempt of the solution...

The book says the actual measured deflection from some experiments is about ##9\times 10^{-6}## radians, and this is double the value that a naive computation returns because of general relativity effects. So I guess my goal is to compute a number that looks like half that. If suggests to do it...

I know the basics of GR, but I'm far from an expert. I'm interested in the general formula for the angle shift experienced by a light ray in presence of a gravitational field. Light bending is topic covered in many books, of course, however the usual treatments would just not do for my purposes...

Hello, I'm looking to construct a simple rectangular 13'x17' hollow steel frame over my patio, but I'm getting conflicting beam deflection calculations. I need to determine my beam size for my long spans of 17'. My plan was to use 3.5"OD A500 structural steel. 11 gauge (.120 in) wall...

Please help to check whether I did it correct, thanks

relevant equations: My questions: (1)Not sure whether I did correct especially for the deflection angle (2)The limit taken for calculating defection Yc , I didn't understand why is from 0 to L/2 instead of the sum of 0 to L/2 and 0 to L, how is the limit determined? Kindly advise, thanks

Hi, I was wondering if anybody knows why the plate in an electron gun is tilted with respect to the electron path? Or has any resources that I could read to better understand? Thanks.

Hi, I was working through a problem about calculating buckling loads. The problem had the following geometry (I apologise for the poor drawing skills): and the total length is ## L ##. The boundary conditions are therefore: 1. ## y(0) = 0 ## 2. ## y(L) = 0 ## My approach: After taking a cut...

So I have a Stylus as shown in above fig. Fixed at Point A, Force (F) is applied perpendicular to the stylus axis. How do we find deflection at the end of the Stylus (Made of Two Different Materials as shown in the figure)? Hand Calculations are much appreciated. Thank you.

I'm reading about the Stern–Gerlach experiment and the only part that confuses me is how a magnetic field would deflect particles with magnetic dipoles instead of just rotating them. In this case the magnetic field is non-uniform, but it still seems intuitively strange to me since magnetic...

Say I've got a magnet flying through empty space in a homogenous magnetic field. The magnet precesses and flies in a straight path. Now make that magnetic field inhomogenous. The magnet precesses and flies in a curved path. What I can't figure out is why the path is curved. It is because...

Not much to add since the question is fairly simple, but again I'm wondering if applying tension at the free end of a cantilever beam affects the deflection it would have if only itself weight is considered. Intuitively, tension should tend to straighten the beam, and if it does, how to...

Hi all, I was looking for help with obtaining deflection at end of a cantilever beam with point load at end as well as point mass at the same location. I believe it would be exactly same. Is this correct? That is, I think just adding point mass at the cantilever's end wouldn't change the...

With the above in mind, I have a cable of E=60GPa, cross sectional area 7e-4m^2. I want to understand the relationship between the tension applied resisting the deflection of the cable when a force is applied so that the cable will not deflect more than 0.7m in this case. Take the force as...

Have tried doing this question but I'm a bit confused on where I'm going wrong This is what I have done but get a value that doesn't match to any of the options given above? Any help would be really appreciated, Thanks!

Question: My attempt: Does 4.75 amps for the full scale deflection seem okay? Thanks for any help!

Using the Sun as example, we know from the Eddington experiment that the Sun deflects light. Does light from other stars get deflected towards or away from the centre of mass, or is it a mix? Does light coming from the Sun get deflected towards or away from the centre of mass? Would this make an...

Large mass (M) - moving - collides elastically with stationary small mass (m) as per crude diagram below. Angle θ is formed between the initial path of the large mass and the line of centres during collision. I would like to say that maximum deflection of the large mass occurs when cos(θ)=m/M so...

Hello, I am trying to solve a problem at work that at first I thought was easy but has proven trickier than I originally thought: If I have a strip of material traveling in a straight line and it is tangent to a roll turning below it, the roll would need to turn at the surface speed of the...

There is the famous experiment of measuring the "movement" of a star close to the sun during an eclipse. The stars position is determined before the disc of the sun moves just under it and than the position is again measured when the sun moves just "under" the star. The star will have appeared...

Hello I would like some feedback about a problem. The idea is to calculate how much the angled bit of this beam moves things to account for are deflection and torsion. Did i miss anything? Underlined with red are the displacements in millimeters. In the picture the dotted line is the axis that...

Hello Everyone, I'm a retired systems engineer from the aerospace industry, while working part of my job was to come up with concepts and then have great mechanical engineers implement them. Now that I'm retired I have to do both parts for myself. I'm designing a storage hoist to get heavy...

Here my problem: A diving board has a vertical depression of 6 inches when a 100-pound man stands 8 feet from the fulcrum. Determine the weight of a man who causes the same diving board to deflect 4 inches vertically when he stands 6 feet from the fulcrum. Show your reasoning and complete solution.

Do solar wind electrons turn left and positively charged ions turn right if they are interacting weakly due to long distance with Earth's magnetic field and fail to complete a loop for the electrons that are on the left of Earth and ions on the right? I assume electrons on the right and ions on...
